Our pets are more to us than just animals; they are a part of our families. They give us joy, companionship and years of selfless devotion. And they rely on us for their very well being.

At Bird & Pet Clinic of Roseville, we specialize in caring for companion animals, whether they are the faithful family dog or cat, tiny rodents, or more exotic animals such as reptiles and birds of prey.

If a medical condition arises that requires treatment, we always follow up to check on our patients’ progress and answer any questions that may arise after they have gone home. We consider this our responsibility because our faithful companions can’t speak for themselves.

At Bird Pet Clinic of Roseville, we treat your pets like the valued family members they are.

"I recently moved back to the area after being away for five years. There are many more choices in the area, but I would not consider taking my kitties anywhere else. Their staff is always pleasant and efficient, and the doctors are best in class. Happy to be back in Roseville and have an excellent vet clinic to look after my kitties."
